The reviews I had read made this book sound promising. However, it didn't grab me.

A fun read. Had me laughing at the start, skimming a bit in some slap-sticky parts yet pausing at gems of older women's wisdom and witty relatable quips. Much of it made me think of my mother, with a smile.

There were two sections of this book that I loved. The section on Oprah and the section on perfume.
The author seems so vapid to me.
I hope she can gain some humility for her future.

29 by Adena Hapren

★★★

Ellie is a 75 year old woman who feels she is missing something in her life and is feeling particularly…old. So for her Birthday she wishes to be 29 for just one day. And surprise, surprise, she wakes up 29 years old. This isn’t the first time that a story is about the theme of going back in age nor is the best of the bunch.

The storyline was cute enough. It was the characters that really made it difficult for me to get into this book. I found the characters to be fairly flat. I could not stand Ellie’s daughter, even after she had “learned” her lesson (because what’s a story without a lesson learned?) I found her to be completely spoiled and annoying on so many levels. The one character I did enjoy was Ellie’s best friend, Frida. However, this one person was not enough to give the book a higher rating. It was a nice, relaxing fluff read but nothing spectacular.
